Nice $5 haul. It must be the time of year since this is the second book sale I visited in the last week and there's another sale this weekend!

Crazy time packing, but a quick post: We took several boxes of books to the only used book store in the area that offered to pay cash. They gave us a decent price, but I really appreciated what she said when the transaction was over. She compliments our collection, then said that she'd make sure to get them into the hands of people who'd appreciate them. As someone who has a hard time getting rid of... anything, I thought that was a nice sentiment

AmyG All the best with moving! 11mo

If anyone is looking for used books, check out my Pango book site. I have many adult and children‘s books for sale! Everything is priced reasonably. I am not sure if Pango Books does international sales. Use the link below! #profstaceysbookshelf #pangobooks

This past weekend I went to a close small town and found a library book sale! 25 cents a book! I only got three but it‘s always fun to browse.

DrexEdit It's a treasure hunt and you never know how great the rewards will be! 👍😊 2y

Has anyone tried buying or selling through PangoBooks? I just found out about it and was wondering if anyone here had experience with the ap.

Aims42 I‘ve seen ads for it in my Instagram feed, but I haven‘t tried using it. I‘d love to hear if any other Littens have used it because I‘m also intrigued 👍 (edited) 2y
Nessavamusic I sold a book on it. Very easy to use! I haven‘t bought anything though. 2y
Soubhiville @Aims42 @Nessavamusic I just ordered a book through it, I‘ll let you know how that goes- it said new condition, hopefully it arrives that way! I might try listing a few books for sale next weekend. 2y
Aims42 @Soubhiville Cool!! I‘d love to hear how your book arrives and your thoughts if you do list anything 👍 2y

And the half-price day was much less frantic with more that I‘m excited about reading! Including one @Megabooks just reviewed that‘s in pristine condition. Overall, worth lugging them around while I shopped. 🤪 #bookhaul #librarybooksale #usedbooks #needtheselikeaholeinthehead #iregretnothing

Forgot to share my #bookhaul from the SSO #usedbooksale last weekend! I‘ve been avoiding book sales & stores all year because I‘ve been avoiding shopping of any kind due to COVID-19, anxiety & other health issues & also because I have 50+ books that won‘t fit on my shelves! But I missed book hunting so much I broke my self-imposed book buying ban when a friend invited me to go to the sale. I bought only 7 books - all from my buy list or tbr list!

RamsFan1963 Little Brother is a great book!! 4y
TK-421 @RamsFan1963 I‘m looking forward to reading it! 3y

CindyMyLifeIsLit Thanks, @Avanders and @wanderinglynn ! My shelves are quite full, but I keep acquiring new books—the dilemma most of us face! 5y
Avanders Lol definitely! I‘m trying not to get too excited .. in anticipation for a not-too-distant future move, I packed up 6 boxes of books to put in storage.. all of a sudden my internal self wants to keep buying books to fill the recently vacated space! 😆😆 5y

802Librarian @ChasingOm Are you familiar with Katy Bowman? I just took a weekend Move Your DNA class and I‘m taking another in June. Before I take YTT, I‘m trying to figure out which flavor of yoga most compliments her ideas of movement. 5y

#bookhaul!!!! 22 books (plus two for my kiddos, not pictured)... for $6!! And I am super pleased with the quality of my finds! I just love library book sales. Filled in quite a few books for my challenges. Only ones that I‘ve already read are Eleanor Oliphant and Britt-Marie.. but I felt they are worth owning (would like a complete Backman collection).

Suet624 What a fantastic collection of books! Hours of enjoyment in your future. 💕 5y

Just came back from my favorite annual used book sale! I got these nine for $15. Who of you has read any of these? Which should I read first? (not that I don‘t already have a TBR stack 100+ books high!)

AmyG I just loved A Map of the World. Great haul! 6y
Lcsmcat I‘ve read Killers of the Flower Moon, and several others in your stack are on my TBR. Great haul! 6y
Nute Several of the books are very good, but Carlos Ruiz Zafon gets my vote. However, that is book two. Have you read Shadow of the Wind? 5y

Yesterday's #library #booksale haul before I had to drive down to PA for a wedding. Some of it is for me, but a majority of it is for gifts and swaps. I love getting these so cheaply so I can give even more in swaps. All rhis for $11.25; and that's only because the movies were $1/each.
